Q&A: help me with english t~~~?


Question by Steve Kim: help me with english t~~~?
“Will the psychiatrist be there?” I asked.
“No.”
“Then why would I want to go?”
“Because my parents want to meet you. I talk about you all the time, and this way they’ll think I’m closer to getting married.”
“But you’re not getting married. Certainly not to me,” I told him.

this is a part from the book,My Horizontal Life.

I talk about you all the time, and this way they’ll think I’m closer to getting married.
Q1) “this way”: what it means?
My guessing is that ” I talk about you all the time, and this way(=so) they’ll think I’m closer to getting married (to you).

Q2) “along this way”: I want to know about “along this way”. I think I know it but I’m not sure about it,so I want to know it more correctly.

Please answer to these questions(Q1 Q2) with some examples that could make it more easy for me to understand.

Thanks a lot.!!!

Best answer:

Answer by rock_angel
don’t quite get Q2 but “this way” in Q1 means something like, ‘with this’. Example: I talk about you all the and WITH THIS they’ll think I’m closer to getting married. It means like, with what they’re doing the speaker’s parents would think their kid would be getting married.

China has disqualified a Taiwanese Taekwondo athlete from the Asian Games based on a lie.
China cheated in the Olympic Games in Beijing by using under-aged athletes, and also presented 50 Han Chinese children as imposters representing the various ethnic groups within its own borders! (Wow…. corrupting your own children… that’s respectable, eh?)
China rammed TWO Japanese Coast Guard ships, and blamed the Japanese for it.
China takes billions of dollars in aide from other countries because they are “a developing nation” while at the same time bragging about being the second largest economy in the world.
China shoots at African mine workers for protesting against dangerous working conditions in a China-run mine.
China claims it owns Taiwan, the Senkakus, the Spratley Islands, Tibet, and East Turkistan based on total BS that is in conflict with established international diplomatic standards, and has sent (or threatens to send) its military to take over these lands.
China imposes sanctions on other people, or flat out denies them the chance to participate, or breaks the written rules of every single international organization that is intended to promote peace, harmony, and health among people within the other nations of the world, such as the UN, the IOC, the WHO, etc..

how can you tell if a court case is criminal or civil?


Question by James A: how can you tell if a court case is criminal or civil?
for example if the case was P v Smith. i know when you use “people” in the title then i know it has to be one or the other, i just dont know which. or what if its Smith v. Johnson?

Best answer:

Answer by bcnu
The name of the case will NOT generally be sufficient. The state or federal agencies can, in fact, sue people as well as bring criminal cases, so the “Commonwealth of Massachusetts v. Foobar Inc” could be either civil or criminal. The case NUMBER, however, may have an identifier, such as CR for criminal or CV for civil.

What is the latitude and longitude of the monumental axis road in brazil?


Question by ownenn: What is the latitude and longitude of the monumental axis road in brazil?
i saw in maxim magazine its supposed to hold 160 cars side to side i want to find it on google erarth i tried with no luck

Best answer:

Answer by Caro Amigo
The “Eixo Monumental” (monumental axis) is in fact an avenue with 6 lanes in each side and a large square between the two sides. See in Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monumental_Axis).
The original Brasilia was inspired in the format of an airplane, and the “Eixo Monumental” is the body of the plane. It is still possible to see the wings of the plane using Google Earth. Just type in the search box “brasil congresso nacional” and you will be directed to the place.

How to split a birthday party with a friend?


Question by ☼ California Gurl ☼: How to split a birthday party with a friend?
So, me and my best friend have a birthday one week apart from each other so we were thinking about having both of our birthday parties at the same place and same time and our parents could split the cost. The problem is, i dont think our friends would bring two presents for us for one party?? What should i do?

Best answer:

Answer by mysterious one
Is all you really care about the gifts friends will bring? Your birthdays are only a week apart, so if they can only bring one gift to your shared party, then chances are only one of you will get a gift prior to the party/at seperate parties.If the presents are really what matters – tell your friends that you 2 prefer they bring gift cards or money so that the 2 of you are able to share everything equally. I would think that the shared experience of a birthday would be enough though. It’s peoples PRESENCE not the presents that make it the most memorable. .

Have the party together, forget about the 2 gift part from friends.. That just leads to jealousy. Anyways, your parents are saving cash and will prob put more of the cash towards gifts for you vs them spending all the money on one party).

Happy Birthday a bit early, and have a good year.

What is this song? It’s not too old and not so new..?


Question by Bonnie: What is this song? It’s not too old and not so new..?
I remember a verse, “Oh please hear my cry..” the song kind of has no music and the singer sounds similar to ben . e king and the guy that sings “What becomes of the broken hearted?” I heard this certain song at Jack in the Box. Do you think they have a cd or something? I think its jazz, or r&b. It doesn’t sound old, perhaps the late 90′s.
I dont think its “What becomes of the brokenhearted”. said he sounded similar to jimmy ruffin.

Q&A: What are the ways to motivate American 3rd grader to love learning and aim for higher educational goals?


Question by vintage: What are the ways to motivate American 3rd grader to love learning and aim for higher educational goals?
Hi. Please advise me how to motivate elementary school boys in America to love learning?
P.S. Slapping, yelling or threatening will NOT be accepted as an answer.

Best answer:

Answer by BrittniMarie
You have to make learning fun esp with younger boys… make obtainable short term goals and praise them when they reach these short term goals and then make more… the more short term goals you make with them they will get into the habit of making goals and trying to achieve them and then they will be able to do that for themselves and be able to make longer term goals…

Your long term goal has to get to get them to motivate themselves because without self-motivation their success will be short lasting

When will chicks get over the whole “Twilight” bandwagon?


Question by capedcod: When will chicks get over the whole “Twilight” bandwagon?
It’s getting really annoying. They’re all “ZOMG EDWARD CULLENS!!!1111″ but there’s no way in hell any woman would go for a dude that clingy.

Oh, and Twilight sucks.

Best answer:

Answer by -
edward cullen is the hottest thing that has come out of england since the beatles. seriously. super hot. I would do him.

WOA..5 thumb downs because I’ve got a crush on Robert Pattinson? In my defense, I have never read the twilight series. I do own the movie though and it’s ok. I like Rob because of the interviews of him on you tube and his music. He is so cool. I love “never think”.

Ok so rob doesn’t like showers. I love his style. There is something about him that is absolutely adorable. If he had been your average “pretty boy” during interviews I would have never fell for him. It’s his quirkiness that makes him HOT. I don’t care that he has BO, I would bath him WITH MY MOUTH.

Can you send an application to a model agency outside of your country?


Question by Klara: Can you send an application to a model agency outside of your country?
I’m from Sweden and I want to be a model but not in Sweden I want to be a model in Korea.
I’m 5’9 so I am model height^^
I was wondering because I’m to young in order to move to Korea.
Is it possible to live in Sweden while I’m signed for a Korean agency?

Best answer:

Answer by Ben Jones
Your dreams are wonderful.

To become a model is one of the most coveted goals in the world. To become famous, to see your picture, to travel to exotic places, to party with other beautiful people and to make lots of money.

For those you must start at home, build a portfolio of finished assignments and go from there. It helps to have a very aggressive agent but you must still be “the perfect model”.

Unfortunately, you can probably assume that it is impossible to raise any interest in another country, especially one so far, geographically away as South Korea.

They have a a very vibrant model-market with plenty of beautiful women of their own. Should a customer, say a clothing retailer need a “foreign” tall and white-skinned model they will search among other agents that may have some of these at hand. they may even contact a Swedish agency.

Who gets chosen is more by marketing needs than by who they are or what they look like. Every company chooses its own “perfect representative” and will search for a person to fit their specification. The modelling industry is brutally competitive.

Your best luck is to start at home, become better and better and perhaps – one day you may be chosen for an assignment far away.

Don’t forget to do well in your school work also, modelling could start out as a hobby and may lead to some income, but will surely not in a long time make up for a real education and a real job.
